I just cast on a few days ago for Elizabeth Zimmerman's Hybrid Sweater from Knitting Without Tears. I was inspired to make it for my hubby after seeing Brooklyn Tweed's version quite a while ago. He knit it two years ago now. I'm hoping (crossed fingers) that I'll finish it for Christmas. I don't have a ball band around to tell you the yarn I'm using, but it's some type of merino, I remember, a nice, casual khaki color.

Here's mine so far. I'm quite proud of the hemmed edge - my first one.

Here you can see the wrong wide of the hemmed edge, where I did that row of knit 2 togethers. It wasn't especially fun, but I do like the result.
